He is doing well. We had his first appointment with the pediatrician when he was only 4 days old. He weighed 6 pounds 9 ounces. We went back the next day to make sure he didn't continue to lose weight, and he didn't! He weighed 6 pounds 10 ounces. What a relief - I think all mothers worry about their babies losing too much weight. When we went back for his 2 week checkup, he weighed 7 pounds 15 ounces! He definitely met and exceeded his goal of getting back to his birth weight of 7 pounds 2 ounces...which surprised me because he spits up so much! The pediatrician put him on medicine for acid reflux :( But he doesn't seem to be as cranky when he spits up, so I'm glad it's making him feel better! We are very blessed that he's such a healthy baby!
We had his pictures taken when he was just over a week old. Sarah did such a great job! Here are a few of my favorites!
Mostly people say he looks like David! He definitely has brown eyes like his daddy, but I think he at least got my nose! Whoever he looks like, I think he is the cutest thing in the whole world :) I definitely feel like my life has been turned upside down, but I wouldn't trade it for anything! I'm pretty sure he's the only person who could wake me up every two hours, and I still love him like I do ;)
I'll add some more recent pictures soon! But for now, it's time for bed!
